OR
“A playful, funny and inventive comedy.
Frisky historical romp"

– Charles Isherwood, The New York Times

“A comic tour de force”
- Theatermania

"Style, humor, and jaw-dropping wit"
– Backstage

"Saucy, sexed-up comedy"
- NY Daily News

"A fetching Maggie Siff, a "Mad Men" alum, brings humor and sexiness as the pioneering Behn.
Andy Paris and Kelly Hutchinson are delights
in all the other roles."
- NY Daily News

"In her real-life poetry, Behn vowed to
'laugh at love and fate.'
Adams and this wonderful cast have certainly done the same with this delightful comedy."

- Associated Press

"Rollickin' bodice-ripping farce...
suitably smart and sexy."
- New York Post

"You will not find a better show on any stage in
New York City."
- NYTheatre.com

Aphra Behn is getting out of the spy trade and into show biz, if she can only write her play without interruptions from her love life—celebrity Nell Gwynne, King Charles II, and double-agent William Scott, among others. While war rages and Aphra and her friends celebrate free love, cross-dressing and pastoral lyricism, the 1660s start to look a lot like the 1960s. Verse or prose, now or then, love or death… and a lot of kissing.

TALK SOON

Hothouse is a developmental workshop for new plays created by Women's Project Lab artists. Commissioned by Women’s Project with the support of the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA), Talk Soon is a multi-disciplinary performance piece that examines how people connect distances and establish identity in the digital age. In both the natural and the digital worlds, the story follows the accidental death of a woman and her online afterlife.

Tickets to Hothouse performances are available by invitation only. Click here to join WP's VIP membership program today to insure your invitation to Talk Soon in March 2010.
